Hey CL!
AdLib2 hours ago
Guess what? I remembered!
choicelady

Did you have a good 4th?
AdLib2 hours ago
Yay!
AdLib2 hours ago
It was OK – nothing fancy, lots of noise in the neighborhood, but othrwise restful and fine.
choicelady

How about you all?
choicelady

I read that tomorrow you all in LA are going to break heat records. Sorry about that. Today here was 108 which is obscene!
choicelady

Good. We were out of town, big softball tournament for the used-to-be-little one. Got back on the 3rd and had friends oover for a little BBQ oon the 4th.
AdLib2 hours ago
It was pretty hot today. Going to our annual Dodger game tomorrow…not in the sun at least, seats are shaded!
AdLib2 hours ago
That sounds like fun.
choicelady

Oh good – I cannot entertain any activity in the direct SUN.
choicelady
2 hours ago
Too bad you need a 2nd mortgage to buy a beer at Dodger Stadium!
AdLib2 hours ago
Hey Harleigh! How’s it going?
AdLib2 hours ago
CL – Then you’ve got an indoor holiday tomorrow!
AdLib2 hours ago
CL – How’s your vision?
AdLib2 hours ago
I am so spoild – Wrigley field $8 seats, $2 hot dogs. Pawtucket RI Red Socks – $2 entry, $1 dogs. I can’t live with this rate inflation!

HARLEIGH!!!
choicelady

hi folks! OK I suppose. enjoying the latest Dolt45 shit show. lol
Harleigh
2 hours ago
CL…that’s too cool!
AdLib2 hours ago
Hey glenn!
AdLib2 hours ago
Harleigh – I like the line that today, Trump met his maker. Like a passive Frankenstein.
AdLib2 hours ago
Good evening, all.

hi glenn, cl al
Harleigh

AdLib – was very good for three weeks, crashed this week. I can see this typeface, thank you, but the one on my own work computer drives me bonkers. I get a second injection Monday. I can’t WAIT! It helped SO MUCH. As gross as the idea, the experience was fine, the results amazing. Supposedly it not only gets better over time, it can extend the intervals between injections and even cure the problem. I live in hope.
choicelady
2 hours ago
Hey glenn!!! Nice to see you!
choicelady
2 hours ago
Hey CL–nice to hear that you can “see” me!
glenn
2 hours ago
So now that Trump’s gently mentioned Russia’s attack on our democracy, time to move on, right?
AdLib2 hours ago
I can! But there’s no question the vision is deteriorating this week. Next shot MONDAY so I’m very happy to do that.
choicelady
2 hours ago
Ad – LOL!! I am NOT moving on! I want to become Mueller groupie and help however I can to bring this schmuck pres and his party DOWN.
choicelady
2 hours ago
That’s good to hear, CL! Hope they improve things sooner than later!
AdLib2 hours ago
CL–Hope after this next shot, it continues to get better.
glenn
2 hours ago
Ad–Of course, we have to move on. Can’t have anything to detract from all of that legislatin’ trump is doing
glenn
2 hours ago
CL – So there’s noo issue with getting shots sooner if you need them?
AdLib2 hours ago
Glenn and Ad = that’s the hope. Everyone online who’s done it does see real improvement over time. Some can STOP the injections because the capillaries give up! I want full surrender!
choicelady
2 hours ago
I loved the clip of trump trying to find the pres limo at the bottom of the AF1 ramp. There’s something really wrong with him.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Ad – appaently th 4-week regimine seems to be the best. I am the recipient of several years of volunteer clinical trials, and they did not find earlier was better so much as consistency.
choicelady
2 hours ago
Harleigh – the man ain’t right. How could he NOT see a armored limo right in front of him? Yes – I think he has dementia, and NO I dont’ think that’s a reason to feel sorry for him.
choicelady
2 hours ago
Okay, so call me crazy, but after seven and a half years of hearing about Obama’s “apology tour”, what shall we call trump’s tour? “The Shame of America Tour”; “The Terrible Tweeter Tour”; “POTWEETER Strikes Again”?
glenn
2 hours ago
CL – Trump’s lame efforts are so purposeless. What he can’t do through propaganda is stop Mueller’s investigation and when the indictments come out, it will hammer Trump permanently. So delude yourself Trump into thinking there’s a way too “move on”, you’re in a corner already.
AdLib2 hours ago
glenn – ANY of those will work.
choicelady
2 hours ago
Me either. Like rayguns second term. pathetic.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Ad – AMEN. That’s exactly correct.
choicelady
2 hours ago
Harleigh – and Nancy Reagan was no Edith Wilson either.
choicelady
2 hours ago
nope
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Back to basice – glenn and Harleigh – did you have a good 4th?
choicelady
2 hours ago
Harleigh – Kasparov said this photo is all over Russia showing Trump as weak and needing Putin’s handshake:
AdLib2 hours ago
Sorry everyone – seriously, the vision problems give me dyslexia of the fingers even tho I do touch type most of the time. Typos abound these days!
choicelady
2 hours ago
yep. I did NOTHING! lol
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Ad – LOL!!!
choicelady
2 hours ago
Harleigh – MY kind of holiday!
choicelady
2 hours ago
CL – So which week are you in so far?
AdLib2 hours ago
CL–I did. My sister, her son, and her granddaughter and I went to Blue Ridge GA, where we rented a cabin in the mountains, and watched four or five fireworks shows from the mountaintop. We weren’t very close, but we could still see them. It was very nice; didn’t have to worry about driving anywhere or getting home.
glenn
2 hours ago
glenn – The Dumb and Ugly American Tour?
AdLib2 hours ago
Dolt45 is weak AND hated. Course he doesn’t know inside his bubble.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Ad–That works for me.
glenn
2 hours ago
I am finishing week 4. They need to put me into the 4-week rota on Mondays so I have to wait 3 extra days til then. The senior ophthalmoligist will actually do it Monday. He reminds me of “Mr Rogers” of the Neighborhood. He’s delightful and wonderfully supportive and nerdy all at the same time. Then I will do it every four weeks on Mondays.
choicelady
2 hours ago
Harleigh – This graphic tells a lot:
AdLib2 hours ago
CL–Mr. Rogers as an opthamoligist! How cool!
glenn
2 hours ago
Oh glenn – that sounds perfectly wonderful! I love the Blue Ridge that I’ve driven in VA. What an amazing place. SO GLAD you got to do that!
choicelady
2 hours ago
CL – Does he call you, “Neighbor”?
AdLib2 hours ago
Yes – he really IS like Mr. Rodgers. He’s very dear, and he makes me feel comfortable.
choicelady
2 hours ago
doesnt sound like fun CL but results count.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Ad I’m not sure he’s called me ANYTHING, but he’s very kind.
choicelady
2 hours ago
It is very cool though, CL.
AdLib2 hours ago
Harleigh – it’s amazingly NOT AWFUL. I was so scared, and it turned out fine.
choicelady
2 hours ago
How about Putin cynically egging Trump on about the press that’s “attacking him”?
AdLib2 hours ago
It is cool. It’s recombinant DNA, something my organization lobbied for on Prop. 71 back in the day, and now I get the benefit.
choicelady
an hour ago
great
Harleigh
an hour ago
Ad – the Putin-Trump dynamic is sick,warped, and treasonous.
choicelady
an hour ago
CL – You sure deserve to get such effective therapy! You helped make it available!
AdLiban hour ago
I know, poor, poor trump. All of these people “attacking” him with the “fake news” that he himself generates.
glenn
an hour ago
Ad – Thank you – yes, we fought that one heavily, and now…I reap the benefits as do millions.
choicelady
an hour ago
CL–wow! You had such vision back in the day!
glenn
an hour ago
glenn – I detect a tiny bit of snark in that!!! He is the most corrupt person I’ve ever seen, never mind prsident.
choicelady
an hour ago
ad by now all world leaders know Dolt45 id a bumbling asshole. their press does too.
Harleigh
an hour ago
I keep thinking that whoever the Dem nom is in 2020 will have so many attacks against Trump, the problem will be deciding which to limit themselves to so they can also campaign on policies they support.
AdLiban hour ago
glenn – it was mostly hope for Parkinson’s, diabetes, et. – never even knew about macular degeneration. And it WORKS. Wow!
choicelady
an hour ago
CL–You only detected a tiny bit? Ha! I must be losing my touch.
glenn
an hour ago
Ad – never thought of it as “overload” on anti trump material! It will be worse for presidential candidates than for SNL on skit topics!
choicelady
an hour ago
glenn – I was being polite!!!
choicelady
an hour ago
CL – That is so gratifying and wonderful to see, your enjoying the fruits of your labors to help others!
AdLiban hour ago
Ad – It really works which amazed me. I wasn’t sure it would. This is a major contribution to people’s well being. Had I not had the shot, I’d now be MAJOR blind in my right eye making life really difficult.
choicelady
an hour ago
Ad–Don’t know if you read “Friday Talking Points” by Chris Weigant, but he is saying the same thing you are, and that I said about Hillary’s campaign. It’s not enough to attack trump; in fact, I think that’s exactly the wrong thing to do. The Dems have to come up with policy, and make that policy known, as Hillary did in her recent tweet in answer to the RNC.
glenn
an hour ago
CL – Yep, it will take a bit of restraint by the Dem. It will absolutely be a referendum election on Trump but very important for Dems to lay out a visioon of wha hey want as well.
AdLiban hour ago
CL–You are such a lady to be so polite!
glenn
an hour ago
CL–and that was not intended to be snark!
glenn
an hour ago
glenn – Hillary did both, and I am ROFLMAO over the GOP demanding to know what HER plans were to fix heatlh care. Seriously? Bitch, please! She linked them to it. She had policies for every part of what impacts us.
choicelady
an hour ago
That’s scary too think about, CL. What a relief this is available and works so well!
AdLiban hour ago
I’m glad for ya CL
Harleigh
an hour ago
glenn – Will read it, agree on Dems needing to do more than run against Trump. Though, I wouldn’t suggest not doing that tooo, the best scenario IMO is attacking Trump for the worst things he is but using that as a lead intoo how Dems will make things better.
AdLiban hour ago
All – I think Dems are fine with policy AND trashing #45. We have full blown treason sitting in the White House, but we do need to remind people what Dems have given people over the years. I am exhilarated by the surge of people demanding GOOD health care plans – peopl are starting to get it on their own!
choicelady
an hour ago
Ad–I just hope that the press gets over it’s “tit for tat” mentality, and actually reports what the policies of each candidate are. I think they did a lousy job of putting forward Hillary’s policies, because she did have them on her website. The press had no problem regurgitating every trump word, never asking him follow up questions on what he would do for a better health care plan, immigration, etc. Hopefully, in 2020, they will focus on policy. It’s probably naive of me to think that they will do that; but it sure would be nice.
glenn
an hour ago
Thanks for the support from everyone. Here’s lookin’ at YOU, kid!
choicelady
an hour ago
CL–not to worry! We always have your back, and we’re glad you can look at us!
glenn
an hour ago
CL – But Trump will have a track record in 2020 as a politician (and a liar), that’s something Hillary didn’t have to attack him. All the broken promises, all the failures and frauds, they will be documented and a shared experience for most voters.
AdLiban hour ago
Press was more enthralled with his outrageous shit blizzard. the rwnj’s thrived on it and again the majority stayed home. morons.
Harleigh
an hour ago
Ad–all the Dem opponent has to do with trump is go to one of the fact-checking sites and point out all of trump’s broken promises.
glenn
an hour ago
glenn – AMEN. And those who were at her rallies, meetings, etc. know she articulated her positions the MSM ignored. MSM are being bullied by Trump whom they enabled. My happy place is that WaPo hired SIXTY new investigative reportrs at the start of the year. This is a time when we need adult responses to the evil within.
choicelady
an hour ago
Harleigh – when media decide the Clown Car is more important than the propagation of bigorty and white suprmacy, we’re right to demand they grown up.
choicelady
an hour ago
CL – And don’t forget that Mueller’s indictments will sink Trump and his cronies. It is exciting to see the anti-Trumpcare/pro-ACA movement going everywhere and whipping up fear in Repubs over supporting Trumpcare.
AdLiban hour ago
Ironic that the folks hurt most by trump are rural whites, his base! LOL
Harleigh
an hour ago
Ad – I am happy about that a LOT. GOP are in total disarray over having complete majorities and unable to stand up to PEOPLE and their demands. What Trump has done is unleash the inner grassroots advocacy in us all. From marches to district town halls, people are newly energized, and it is AWESOME!
choicelady
an hour ago
Harleigh–indeed. But many people were voting AGAINST Hillary, because, as Ad points out, trump had no track record. It truly wasn’t just morons who elected trump. Hopefully, in 2020, the backlash for independents and moderate repubs will be AGAINST trump!
glenn
an hour ago
Harleigh – that is both sad and precitiable.
choicelady
an hour ago
glenn – A legit concern, I sure could imagine the MSM feeling they had to go harder after the Dem because they’ve gone after Trump so much. On the other hand, after being so attacked and threatened by Trump, maybe the media will be more responsible in an election between Trump and someone sane.
AdLiban hour ago
I think the bernbots and jill jackoffs were damaging as well.
Harleigh
an hour ago
glenn #45’s loss of support is definitely from that independent base. His cult remains strong, but they are quite small. And yes – misogyny. Sigh.
choicelady
an hour ago
glenn – The Dem should handpick the most devastating Trump outrages and hammer those while promoting policies to repair America, our democracy and the standing of the US worldwide.
AdLiban hour ago
Ad – Data show the did NOT go after Trump much at all. He was entertaining and a ratings grabber. He got NO vetting. They suck up, and now they pay the price.
choicelady
an hour ago
Ad – Perfect stratgy.
choicelady
an hour ago
CL – That’s a lot of investigative reporters! And considering Trump has singled out them and so many other big media outlets as “fake news”, I imagine they’re anxious to hammer the stake through his heart as soon as they can.
AdLiban hour ago
Too bad the dems misused their 5 million invisible mexican ninja voters and put them all in NY and CA!!! LOL
Harleigh
an hour ago
Harleigh – That’s the only thing that I see as a silver lining in the Repubs passing Trumpcare, their base would be destroyed the most by it and the GOP would lose so much support, they’d become a minority party.
AdLiban hour ago
Ad – LOL!! Love the “steak through his heart” image!
choicelady
an hour ago
Harliegh – LOL!!!
choicelady
an hour ago
I hope he has a massive karmattack like bretfart.
Harleigh
an hour ago
CL – Sometimes a threat is needed to move the majority to action. That sure seems the case and it is encouraging.
AdLiban hour ago
Harleigh – only reason I don’t want HIM to die in office is the martyrdom. I want him to suffer and be exposed for what he is first.
choicelady
an hour ago
I have to admit I love trollin rwnj sites like The Hill and bretfart about their 5million illegal voters. I do have to say they hate me.
Harleigh
an hour ago
Ad – we rose to the occasion in Civil Rights and anti-war. This is the same kind of threat. We stayed active during Watergate but more quietly – but people definitely spoke OUT. We got soft and compliant and indifferent. NO MORE.
choicelady
an hour ago
Harleigh – That’s playing into the Russian trolling. It’s not Bernie or Stein voters that are the enemy, it is racist, hateful Trumpsters and Putin.
AdLiban hour ago
CL good choice!
Harleigh
an hour ago
CL – I will never forget the CEO at CBS, Les Moonves saying, “Trump may be bad for the country but he’s good for CBS.” That said it all. The MSM helped out their most vicious enemy in the WH. I don’t think we’ll see them make that same mistake again in 2020.
AdLiban hour ago
So I’m going to tell everyone the secret of how libs do real massive voter fraud by voter impersonation! I drive a 60 passenger Greyhound type bus…. for George Soros! There are 10,000 of us so we can move 600,000 people from poll to poll and state to state all day from 6am to 7pm in each time zone! Obviously we have 50,000 standby buses to account for the millions of people we transport to do on site voter impersonations with fake ID’s and voter cards in the name of the persons on the roll. The super secret voter fraud bus parking lot is YUGE. I get $30 hr plus expenses and $50 per head to each poll $3,000 per stop! Soros bag men are at each stop to pay us in cash, ‘voters’ get box lunches, sodas or beer and $10 per vote. If anyone says I ratted out libs giant voter scam with our stealth buses and ninja Mexican voters I will deny it! We also transport tbagrs to Dolt45 and other KKK/Nazi functions between elections to offset costs of our GOTV efforts. They are all secretly photographed and recorded so we know everything about them down to the serial numbers on their medicaid scooters. Keep this information confidential.
Harleigh
an hour ago
Ad – MSM such as CBS have a LOT to answer for!
choicelady
an hour ago
Harleigh – Yeah, if we have so many millions of illegal voters in the Dem Party, why couldn’t we have a few hundred thousand voting in the Rust Belt! Man, us libtards are so dumb about cheating in elections.
AdLiban hour ago
ad no shit. all of the crap in my rant came from those rw sites but when put together are impossible to accomplish or keep secrett.
Harleigh
an hour ago
CL – Yes, the people are rising up as Trump is working on kicking out voters. Of course he wants to corrupt democracy, he can’t win re-election fairly.
AdLiban hour ago
Like nobody would notice busloads of non-english speaking people rushing the polls. PUH-LEEZE
Harleigh
an hour ago
Harleigh – That must drive the RWNJs crazier!
AdLiban hour ago
If there are 5mil illegal votes and only less than 20 charged that makes no sense yet drumphs ‘commission’ carries on.
Harleigh
an hour ago
Harleigh – Especially in so many smaller communities where everyone knows everyone else.
AdLiban hour ago
Harleigh – this is exactly what happened in the late 90s. RW assertions that Bill Clinto had marital law closings signs shipped coast to coast in Wal Mart trucks was a ‘thing’. Everyone is owned by the UN. And on and on. Hoffstadter’s “The Paranoid Style in American Politics” is still a MUST READ.
choicelady
an hour ago
Where’s glenn go?
AdLiban hour ago
This group has no accountability to the voters or to Congress. They have no permanent staff or budget. Unlike state Secretaries of State who have both federal and state laws to abide by. And, really, voter impersonation fraud is rare. Kobach (co-chair of panel) after two years as KS SOS only found nine cases to prosecute, of which six were convicted, only one of which was a non-citizen. Out of 1.8 million voters in Kansas. This was a total waste of taxpayer money and is a real privacy risk. 4 whole voter frauds for 2016!!
Harleigh
an hour ago
CL – Yes, I remember that UN/World Order paranoia during Clinton!
AdLiban hour ago
And they never did get their gunz tooken away! LOL
Harleigh
an hour ago
The rumors of fraud lie with people who have zero idea what it’s all about. Some said they saw ‘busloads of Black people at their poll” as if THAT means they could not be local or vote there or be registered there. Churches do that – bring LOTS of people all at once. Big whoop. Now the mantra is ‘people are registered in more than one state”. Well guess what – that inclues SEVERAL of the Trump kids and staff. Issue is – did they VOTE in more than one state? We have careful vetteing of people in every state. Issue is blocking qualified voters NOT having voter fraud.
choicelady
an hour ago
Yes – where DID glenn go???
choicelady
an hour ago
Harleigh – And Kobach was fined for lying to the court about the anti-voter papers he held in a photo with Trump. He begged the judge to reverse it. The judge refused. So, a convicted liar and anti-voter fraud is Trump’s top election investigator?
AdLiban hour ago
Harleigh – Saw a report that gun sales are way down because they can’t scare the dopes that Obama is taking their guns away.
AdLiban hour ago
AdLib – Kobach is EXACTLY who Trump would want – a convicted liar.
choicelady
an hour ago
CL most people that have moved end up registered in 2 states. They got so much going on that their voter registration is never a thought. Wasn’t for me but in general like here in FTL after you miss a few elections you get purged. They don’t know if you get convicted or die either. their argument is hollow.
Harleigh
an hour ago
CL – I don’t believe that any of those pushing the voter fraud thing truly believe there’s voter fraud. They know it’s a voter suppression thing against minorities.
AdLiban hour ago
AD that’s all it is.
Harleigh
an hour ago
Ad- I think the demand for our personal info is so hideous and dangerous I can’t say how happy I am even KOBACH refused to comply with Kobach’s own demand!!!

pinkpantheroz

PPO =- you’re surprised? Puddinface’s actions were to be anticipated.
choicelady

yep. I thought that the best was when he coulnd not find his limo at the bottom of the AF! ramp. fuckin priceless.
Harleigh
an hour ago
PPo – how’s your weather there? Sacramento was 108 this afternoon – we’re dying.
choicelady
an hour ago
CL – The hypocrisy of the GOP is so extreme it’s hard to be outraged by the latest case of it. Repubs all worried about Obama collecting info on gun owners, oon the public through electronic collection, on the New World Order spying on them…then their guy tries too steal all the personal info of every voter in America and they have no comment. If Dems could just spotlight the GOP for them having no principles left and protecting Russia over America, they should implode.
AdLiban hour ago
Naw. Totally as anticipated. grovel to Putin, dumb down the rhetoric. flub the speeches. The usual
pinkpantheroz

Hey PPO!
AdLiban hour ago

Will be at the ballpark in the late afternoon, CL. Hope it cools down there!

To be honest, it only gets to that a few days a year in Victoria, but elsewhere it is pretty bad.

That’s a bit scary, CL!

Good advice, CL. We’ll stay hydrated, critical for the young athlete!

choicelady

Oakland? That’s a bit too close.
pinkpantheroz
38 minutes ago
PPO – I’m loving the ignoring of him, the rolling of eyes from Angela, and the general indifferece to the Yam Man from all quarters.
choicelady

PPO – Trump is the bully amongst civilized people, the 5 year od shunned by the adults.
AdLib38 minutes ago
Isn’t it great, cl? Not good for USA, unfortunately.
pinkpantheroz
37 minutes ago
PPO – last time a friend lost her house, and the fire officials were contemplating BLOWING UP many blocks of Oakland as a fire break. It horrifies me to even think of it now.

AdLib36 minutes ago

pinkpantheroz

I think it’s now pretty much understood by the rational people around the world that Trump is a lying asshat. Who wouldn’t turn their back on him? You can’t get anywhere treating him respectfully.

When he finally appointed the head of FEMA, our emergency response agency, he got a GOOD PERSON. I breathe a bit easier there. Globally it’s the career people who hold us together.

No fires near Oakland now. Only near ME. It was at least a 5-alarm, and I don’t know why. SMOKE was awful, traffic on th crosstown freeway stopped for smoke and access of fire equipment. Scary.

Make sure you have time and access to get out if you need to. Be safe.

I deal with this every summer, but this year it’s bad because homeless people displaced from the river area due to high water are JUST getting back to their camps. Always worry about their safety.

Just finished watching a special aboout Russia and Putin and it ended with polling that 49% of Repubs think Russia is our friend. Ignoorance like this is a little depressing.
